Hundreds of people stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field Sunday, chanting antisemitic slogans and seeking passengers arriving on a flight from Tel Aviv, Israel, Russian news agencies and social media reported.
Russian news reports said the crowd surrounded the airliner, which belonged to Russian carrier Red Wings.
Authorities closed the airport in Makhachkala, the capital of the predominantly Muslim region, and police converged on the facility. Dagestan’s Ministry of Health said more than 20 people were injured, with two in critical condition. It said the injured included police officers and civilians.
Didnt russia invade ukraine because there were nazis in the country that need to be fleshed out or something? Is it time russia invades russia?
Russia has a long fucking history of invading “Russia”.
It’s Russians all the way down…
They’re not Russians.
Don’t they have Russian “passport” ? How can you tell Russian apart? Are e.g Siberians also not Russians ?
They are citizens of Russia, but not Russians ethnically. Just like a Japanese person with a US passport is not suddenly white person of European descent.
Japanese who is also US citizen is American .
Also Russian is not race , Western Russian are mostly Caucasian, which is probably what you call white person of European decent. So according to your logic , There are no Russians in Russia 😅 👍Wut?
Not sure what to answer… let me try one similar level… Doggy sounds… Wuf
Dagestani people are mostly Sunni Muslim. So I would call the group in this instance Islamic extremists, or just conservative Muslims, and not Nazis. Antisemitism is kind of baked into the Quran, sadly. Not to mention modern history between the two groups kind of fuels that fire.
That’s not to say that there aren’t actual Nazis in Russia, and there may have even been a few involved here. To be fair, its getting hard to tell the difference between Nazis, and extremely conservative people of most every religious denomination nowadays. So I guess your point still stands.
Right. Religion ruins everything.
If you beleive Putin, Russia invaded Russia by invading Ukraine!
So pogroms are back, that’s probably not a great sign for the species
The article I read yesterday, mention a viral rumor about Israel coming to annex Dagestan.
Dagestan has no monopoly on stupid people.
Christ on a shitstick.
This sounds so absolutely fucked to literally anyone who doesn’t live in Dagestan. I’ve pored over maps of Russia and I didn’t even know that existed.
reminds me of something

You’re dumb and wrong. Judaism is considered one of the religions of the book which are considered the least wrong other religions… and the believers supposed to be offered additional privileges and tolerated.
But that’s all moot because what holy scriptures say is often disregarded if inconvenient by all modern religions. Modern animosity is politically born - the antisemitism you’ll see in places like Palestine is because a people were forceably displaced… if there wasn’t a difference in religion some other excuse would be found to fuel hatred.
Journalist really need to acquire the knowledge of Arabs being also a Semitic population. The exclusive use of the Semitic label for Israel and the Jews in general is just one more disgrace in this whole story.
🤓
So I am a nerd and being downvoted for pointing this obvious mistake?
It is like in the 2nd chapter of the fairytale the Israelis and all the others in the region based all their lore on. And it is relevant to the article since in it it’s stated that there were Palestinian flags brought by the protesters.
